About Mapping Data Between Applications

Once you create an integration and have the source and target connections in place, you can define how data is mapped between the element nodes in the two data structures.

The mapper appears with the element nodes of the source data structure on the left and the target data structure on the right.

  1. To map fields directly, click a source element nodes and drag it to the corresponding field in the target element node.
    A line connects the two nodes. An Expression Builder below the mapper is displayed to show the XPath expression.
    Three icons appear in the upper left. Below this is the Sources tree, the Mapping Canvas section, and the Target tree. Below this is the Expression Builder field, with five icons to the right. To the right of the Target tree is the Component section. Functions has been selected. Under String, concat is selected. In the upper right of the page are the Developer button, XSLT button, and six icons.

  2. To use functions, operators, or XSLT statements in your mapping, see Work with Functions, Operators, and XSLT Statements.
  3. When you are done mapping data, click <, then click Apply to save your changes when prompted. You can also click Validate to save your changes.
